Toonami Airing Dragon Ball & DBZ Back to Back Literally Saved the Series in America

I remember when anime was struggling in the US – the dubbing was often poor, it was hard to find on TV, and a lot of American viewers just didn’t ‘get’ it. Then Toonami made a brilliant move: they scheduled Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z back-to-back. It completely changed everything. Suddenly, a whole generation discovered anime through those shows, and it really shifted how Americans saw the medium. People who’d missed the original Dragon Ball could finally start at the beginning and understand everything that was happening as Goku grew from a young fighter to an incredibly powerful hero. That created a real connection and made the story so much more rewarding. Honestly, it gave the series the momentum and cultural impact it needed to really succeed here, and it felt like it saved Dragon Ball in America.
